The car was in good condition and the interior was fairly clean. The process of picking up and returning the car was relatively smooth. However, there was some urging when getting on the car from the airport, and the pick-up location was not clearly indicated. Service quality needs improvement.
Very poor. When we arrived at the store, we found that the car we rented was not the same model as what we booked. It was much smaller than the Toyota we selected, and the trunk couldn't fit our luggage. We requested a change, but they said there were no other cars available. The male owner arrogantly told us to take it or leave it and offered a refund, refusing to rent the car to us. It was almost evening, and they took advantage of our situation. Additionally, the car had issues; the warning light came on after driving less than 50 kilometers. We contacted the owner, who took almost two hours to figure out the problem, which was resolved by turning the car off and on again. While on the highway, the car suddenly braked on its own, which was extremely dangerous; luckily, there were no cars behind us. We rented a car for ten days on the South Island without any issues, but this rental was problematic from the start. Overall, a very, very, very bad experience.
There was hardly any queue, possibly because of the time we arrived. We had a dedicated car to pick us up from the airport. It's a family business, and both the owner and his wife were very friendly. Unlike in China, you need to be aware of the deposit policy. It's not like Shenzhou Car Rental where the pre-authorization is immediately unfrozen upon return. The pre-authorization for my rental was 2500 NZD. Since we were heading to Sydney for our next stop, the owner's wife manually released the pre-authorization for us, although it might take some time to process. So if you have a tight budget, do prepare for this. Overall, it went smoothly, and I will rent from here again for a longer trip with family.
Excellent money saving deal. Got a fairly new vehicle. Was a very economical trip.
